Kobe Bryant reminisces on his draft day by taking a swipe at the Hornets. Kobe Bryant in 1996. On July 1st, 1996, Charlotte Hornets draft pick Kobe Bryant was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers for Vlade Divac. 18 years later, the five-time NBA champion reminded the Hornets of that decision. To be fair, the Hornets went from 41-41 to 54-28 with Divac, and Bryant played 15 minutes per game in his first season.
Some of the best players in the NBA came right out of high school. In addition to Bryant, LeBron James declared for the NBA draft at age 18. So did Dwight Howard. So did Kevin Garnett. All of their careers have turned out fine. So Bryant could have a point.
